Group Four: By Matthew Mitford and Martin Smith.

This group of Archeological Detectives made sand moulds out of Cuttlefish. When finished they were going to have molten pewter put in them.

Dana, the tutor, said that metal could be made into different shapes by melting it, she also said that casting would have started about the Bronze age and moulds would be made in sand.

Dana then got some sand in a box and told the group to flatten it out.

When they had finished the children had to split the sand evenly in 6 spaces and they had to then put 2 shapes in each section of the sand.

We asked the children if they liked the course and what their favourite part was.

They liked the course and they mainly liked pot making or the woodwork.

The display table is full of their work and drawings they have done, the drawings are of them making things.
